Baltimore American: Unlike poets,
most booms are made, not born. Bust.
ness prosperity comes from enterprise.
The man who advertises and hustles gets
the trade. The one who dozes and waits
for fortune to march in and fill his safe
with gold is generally sold out by the
sheriff. What applies to individuals ap.
plies to cities. The way to make good
times is to work for them. Trade is not
sentimental. 1t must be sought for. 1t
must be retained by fair dealing and
constant cultivation. The Fall business
has opened auspiciously. Let everybody
contribute what he can to the boom,
Let grumblers retire and give way to
workers. The city and its people will
reap the rewards.

A Great Attraction at the California
tat Fnir-What u Chief Said.
The Sacramento Record-U Union says:
During the hop-picking season 200 Piutes
from Winnemucoa and the campoodies
along the Humboldt have been employed
by Captain Maokay at the Rancho Del
Paso, and they are said to be far superior
to the Chinese as hop-pickers. The Di-
rectors of the California State Fair made
arrangements for an Indian pony race in
which fourteen we'll mounted bucks par
ticipsted. They all rode bare back, and
the race, which was very close, drew Q
large crowd to the grounds. Two OF the
Indians had better horses than the others,
and it was q neck aud neck race between
them. Each received a silver medal and
500 was divided among the participants.
John Sykes, who is probably the indivld-
ual known on this side OF the mountains
as johnson Sides, delivered the following
eloquent address:
"Big Chief and people Of California:
I came from beyond the snow-clad peaks
of the Sierrss. / am q native OF the state
OF Nevada, q State that has produced
StOU, UUU, JUU AL bllVoAs n osotO Va w.
bounded resources, one that has many at
fractions for the people of my race. My
father, my grandfather, my great-grand-
father. and my ancestors for centuries are
buried In the Sagebrush State, and there
1 expect to be buried at the close OF my
life. The Piutes are q loyal tribe, we
are true to our Chief in Washington,
and Uncle Sam is our father. Our
people long since buried the Ratchet
that onoe was raised against the pale
face, and to.day and for many years past we
live in peace and harmony with the
white man. We are not idle. we are not
addicted to the use Of fire water, but we
are sober and industrious. We have
crossed the mountains, the horizon Of our
native wilds, to settle the Chinese hop
picking question in this State. Immense
applausel We claim to be native Ameri-
cans. [applause The Mongols came
from across the ocean, and the money
they earn is shipped in their junks to
Canton, and I cannot see that they are
any benefit to the country. All we want
is a square deal and a fair show. and we
will prove to you that all Indians are not
bad, and that some good Indians are
even respectable before death. applause
I thank you on behalf Of my tribe for the
courtesies You have shown us to-day, and
for reference to ourselves l refer with
pleasure to Captain John Mackay."
After the Indians had returned to their
camp, President Shippee went over and
had an interview with Captain Sykes. He
engaged the latter to go to Stockton with
his Indians on Wednesday next and give
an exhibition football game in the fore
noon and an Indian pony race in the after
noon at the park. He agreed to give the
Indians two bullocks, plenty Of flour,
furnish transportation and pay them 5000
in money.

New York Star: John Sherman, James
G. Blaine and about one hundred wealthy
followers of their school of politics have
combined together to subscribe $500 a
year for the circulation of protectionist
literature during the coming campaign.
1t is proposed to increase the number of
leaguers to 1000, which will give the
neat sum Of 500, 600 to be used for
monopoly politics. But even this large
amount will be only the cover for the
immense corruption fund that will be
used to contest important States this
year, preliminary to the national cam.
paign of next Fall.

cabbage and other vegetables grown on
less than 40 acres Of land are So, 500.
s175 per acre clear profit would make
pretty good boom land even at Riverside,
Los Angeles or San Jose. Mr.. Ross real
lied about 500 this year on one and
thrse.fourths acres of land in melons,
This is a goss income of $500 per acre,
But S175 net profit per acre would pay ten
per cent interest on 81, $50 invested. Now
we do not say that land in this valley is
worth ST $50 per acre nor one half Of this
amount; but we do say that our land is Of
fertile as that of any land in California;
we do say that such statistics as these, col
lected and published would bring into

A amb for Coin.

On Saturday night, says the Sacramento
Bee, Jim Fair, son of the San Francisco
millionaire, was playing faro in a Second
street lair of the d" tiger" and succeeded
in winning several hundred dollars. He
put all the money in his pocket. except $1OO
in SIS pieces. which he held in his hand
as he turned from the table. There was
q large crowd present, and young Fair was
jostled, the coin falling to the floor. In
stantly there was a great scramble, the
FOUNDERS and check guerillas grabbing for
the glittering coins, like urchins wrestling
for pennies in the street. The young man
who dropped the money did not have a
dollar of it returned to him.

The Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue, Mr.. Miller, is preparing a state
ment showing to what extent the receipts
of the Government would be diminished
by an absolute repeal of the Internal
Revenue tax. Mr.. Miller claims that
the Prohibition sentiment is growing
very rapidly in this country, and he
cites the decline in the manufacture of
whisky during the last fiscal year AS
compared with the previous year. For
the year ending June 80, 1856, the In.
ternal Revenue receipts for distilled
spirits were 1853, O92, 1852. During the
year ending June 80, 1887, the receipts
dropped down to S65, S29, 32l, a decrease
of SO, 362, 944. For several years past
there has been a gradual falling off in the
manufacture of distilled spirits. Mr..
Miller attributes this to the more TEN.
perate habits of Americans.
While the manufacture of whisky is
on the decrease, the brewing of beer is
becoming more extensive, and the bever.
age is now the popular American drink.
The receipts from beer during the past
fiscal year were $2l, 922, 1877, against
$40, 676, 73l the year previous, thus show.
ing an increase of 50, 245, 456.

The National Debt.

The Sun states that q. P. HUNTINGTON
advocates q consolidated national debt oil
$4,000, 00O. 900. in which every man and
woman with a $50 bill in the country
could have an interest after the fashion
of England's debt. He says the debt
would be a closer bond of union between
them. The tax on spirits would pay the
interest on the debt and we would

THE GUN.

The New York Mail and Express
says: Truly our Uncle Samuel may say
that he is not as other uncles are, albeit
he does not say it in the spirit of the
Pharisee; and the other uncles may say
that they are not as our Uncle Samuel is,
and they will probably congratulate
themselves upon the fact. And this
apropos to the experiments with the
dynamite gun down the harbor. That
gun is very likely to revolutionize all
warfare as to coast defenses, because it
makes q few iron tubes behind earth.
works on the hills equal to all the iron.
clad navies of the world. As our one
little battle of iron.clads in Hampton
Roads proved to all the Governments Of
the Old World that the time of the
wooden man.of.war was run out and
compelled the reconstruction of the
navies of the nations at an enormous
cost, so this one little experiment in.
dicates that all the money so spent was
wasted, and that the iron navies may be
sent to the junk shop. The principle Of
this revolution touches especially gun.
merry. Instead of an explosion which
sends a deadly missile against the enemy,
we now have contrived to send the ex.
plosion itself. We lodge against or into
the side of the ship an explosive package
containing a substance capable of shak.
ing or wrecking anything contrived by
human hands, and we contrive that the
explosion shall occur at the moment Of
impact. If a shell containing and ex.
ploding fifty pounds of dynamite can be
delivered safely against the side of a
ship at the distance of one mile, then
the gunnery of to-day stands to the
iron.clad ship of to-day in. at least as
good a position as the gunnery of fifty
years ago stood to the wooden men.of-
war of that period, and we have nulliied
the great navies of other nations. This
is the drift of the Zalinsks experiment;
and to the little party at which this was
to be shown our Uncle Samuel cody and
freshly invited all the foreign Ambas-
sadors. Russia discovers a new ex-
plosive, France ~invents a new she'll, and
these things are treasured as momentous
secrets. Men caught betraying them
are shot for treason. We invent some.
thing worth a thousand new shells, and
we simply scramble around for an op.
portunity to give it away.

A Cause for Divorce.

A man in Lafayette, Ind, was recently
granted a divorce from his wife on the
ground that she was ON inveterate smoker
and user of tobacco in all forms. The
Woman's Standard thinks that "if the
wives of all men who are addicted to its
use should seek to be released from matri-
monial bonds on that account, the courts
would be in permanent session, and law
yers would become immensely wealthy"
